Nice to have my first impression of the fella so bountifully confirmed.

Not uncommon though is it Keith? Didn't alex goulder do this in the sky poker thing a couple years back? I imagine it happens fairly often with people who also value the limelight as well as the money.

interesting stuff, so the other guy wanted more money and Will really wanted to do a deal and wasn't willing the go that far on the money so they threw in the glory to soften the financial blow.

Also - who the hell is going to sponsor Will, he's a cool character and defo an interesting person to have around but I can't REALLY see a poker site wanting to put their name to his antics when they are typically quite disruptive.

Perhaps his best bet is with a DFS site? Given he's naturally going to attract quite a bit of TV attention, and they won't really care so much what the pro's think of him. They won't give a fuck about his £10k trophy either.

I think he should branch himself into the media side of things, which he is kinda doing to be fair.

If thats the case then its sofa so good for him...

This needs more love

Out of interest, having read Silvers blog have your first impressions still been confirmed or has your perception changed at all?
